1. Have You Got Your Father's Day Gifts Yet?
Objective
This email aims to drive last-minute Father’s Day gift purchases by highlighting time-sensitive deals on golf gear from trusted brands, while positioning Golf Monthly as the go-to resource for curated, expert-vetted gift ideas tailored to golf-loving dads.
Why this works
The email opens with a personal, urgent tone that taps into the emotional pressure of last-minute gifting, making readers feel they’re being let in on insider deals rather than just receiving another promotional blast.
How to implement
By splitting product picks into US and UK editions, the campaign shows thoughtful localization, not only adjusting prices but also explaining regional availability and relevance, which builds trust and reduces friction for international shoppers.
Pro Tip
Add a visual countdown timer near the top of the email to reinforce urgency around Father’s Day, especially since the subject line and opener emphasize time sensitivity, this would increase perceived scarcity and conversion likelihood. • Include brief customer testimonials or star ratings next to each product pick to enhance social proof, particularly for high-ticket items like GPS watches, where buyer hesitation may be higher without peer validation.
2. These Discounts On Some Of The Best Golf Wedges Are Hard To Believe...
Objective
This email aims to drive immediate purchases of premium golf wedges by showcasing time-sensitive discounts and leveraging editorial credibility through curated picks from the E-Commerce Editor. It also seeks to position Golf Monthly as a trusted source for golf gear ahead of Father’s Day.
Why this works
The email opens with a personal, relatable editor’s letter that ties current golf events to product needs, making the promotion feel timely and authentic rather than purely transactional.
How to implement
By splitting product picks into US and UK selections, the campaign respects regional availability and pricing, which builds trust with local audiences and reduces friction in the buying decision.
Pro Tip
Add a subtle countdown timer or 'Limited Stock' indicator next to each deal to create urgency, especially since the subject line implies disbelief, reinforcing scarcity would amplify that emotional hook. • Include a short testimonial or user rating beneath each wedge description to validate performance claims, since golfers rely heavily on peer reviews when investing in equipment.
3. Win $10,000 By Picking The Top Three At The Sanderson Farms Championship On The PGA Tour This Week

Why this works
The email brilliantly leverages timely tournament excitement by anchoring its main offer around predicting top finishers at the Sanderson Farms Championship, creating urgency and relevance that resonates with golf fans eager to engage with live events.
How to implement
By pairing a high-value $10,000 prize with a free, no-purchase-necessary game, the campaign lowers the barrier to entry while maximizing perceived value, making it irresistible for casual and serious golfers alike to click and participate.
Pro Tip
Replace the generic 'Read More' CTA under each news article with action-oriented text like 'See Lexi’s Full Interview' or 'Watch Chris Kirk’s Left-Handed Swing,' which better reflects the content and increases click-through intent. • Add a countdown timer or deadline notice near the main offer to create urgency, since the Sanderson Farms Championship is time-sensitive, reminding users of the closing date for entries would boost immediate participation.
